    HMV - staff get a discount card for 30% off after 6 months service BUT it is NOT for friends/family.

    Fat Face - 75% off clothes up to a certain amount for uniform, 20% off for any extra clothes and accessories up to a certain amount for yourself, friends and family.

    Up until May 2008 any DSGi employee (i.e. Curry's, PC World, Dixons etc) got the Orange Dolphin 35 contract for £3.50 PM - just my luck when I actually want a phone contract they pull the offer :(

    Sister's BF gets 25% off @ John Lewis (except electricals - only 12.5%). Pretty good seeing as he is only part time at Waitrose!

    Now I work for an animal pharmaceutical company, and I can have anything we make for free (animal shampoos, vaccines, dental stuff, flea stuff etc) which saves me a hell of a lot of money!! I can also get products made by the other pharmaceutical companys at wholesaler price.

  • Yer I work for monsoon and you get 75% off both monsoon and accessorize - I love it... Althoguh never have any money but i do have a fab wardrobe.

    For every 4 hours you work you get £50 added to your card which gives you 75% off amount on card.

    So I work 12 hours and get a allowance of £150 each month which lets me get 75% off.
    When that runs out you get 25%
    Temps get benefits too!

    Anyone after a job its the best place!

    I work at BHS and get 20% off in all Arcadia shops, 40% on cardholder's 20% days and 45% off food in the restaurant and coffee lounge.

    Does anyone know if it's possible to use staff discount online?
    I would've thought I'd be able to, but can't see any info anywhere!
